WaFd employees stopped by Third Stone (the philanthropic arm of Bumbershoot) to drop off a check for their workforce development program benefiting local low-income youth. The Workforce Development Program is a free education program that aims to remove barriers of entry into the live-music business for young adults, ages 17-25. They teach valuable skills like concert marketing, audio engineering, lighting design, backstage hospitality, talent buying, stagehands, front-of-house operations, multimedia design, festival operations, and fundraising for non-profit organizations
We're so proud of our very own Krystal Humphrey and Miranda Florez, who are making a real difference in our community with the United Way Wine Country Earn it! Keep it! Save it! program. Every Wednesday, Krystal and Miranda volunteer their time to help individuals and families file their taxes for free! Last year, they helped file over 13,000 local tax returns – that's incredible! Their dedication embodies the spirit of giving back and empowering others.

Fueling the entrepreneurial spirit in Austin! ✨ Our Central Austin team recently presented a $5,000 WaFd Foundation check to the EGBI Business Accelerator (EGBI). These folks are doing amazing things, providing the training, coaching, and support that aspiring and current business owners need to thrive, especially those facing barriers. As Austin’s #1 small business incubator/accelerator, EGBI is a real game-changer. We're not just writing checks, though – our team is actively involved, volunteering our time and expertise. Daniel Bennett even serves on their board! We believe in the power of entrepreneurship, and we're excited to support organizations like EGBI that are making a real difference. #entrepreneurship #supportlocal #austin #wafdbank #wafdfoundation
